About the Kenwood Excelon XR-1700P
Quality components
These high-quality external crossovers ensure the woofers and the tweeters receive the right frequencies.
Quality components
I know — your choices when it comes to component speakers feel overwhelming, but this Kenwood Excelon XR-1700P 6-1/2" component system belongs on your list. The celebrated Excelon 2-year warranty is a meaningful symbol of the sound quality you can expect from these classics. You'll gain a rich, full sound, thanks to a strong, enhanced pulp woofer cone that offers the warmth of paper with the durability of modern plastics. The resilient rubber surround shrugs off weathering and provides support, no matter what.
Huge tweeters
It's amazing the difference a well-placed tweeter can make in the sound of your system. The separate 1-3/16" soft dome tweeters deliver all the high-frequency details smoothly, while 2-way external crossovers and powerful, lightweight magnets make these tweeters extremely accurate without sounding harsh.
Bring on the power
With speakers this fine, you'll enjoy premium audio that'll make every drive a joy. And these well-built speakers will handle up to 80 watts RMS, so you'll maximize their performance when you power them with a nice amp. Grilles are included.

Features
Woofers: The woofer cones are made of injection-molded polypropylene. This process of cone molding assures a uniform cone thickness for superior linearity and clarity. It is also light weight and rigid for decreased distortion and improved bass response.
Woofer Mounting: Without an adapter, the XR-X1700P woofers fit standard 6-3/4" applications. Given their required cutout, they will also fit 6-1/2" applications without an adapter, but new screw holes must be drilled. Using the included adapter brackets they can be mounted in a variety of 6-1/2" and 6-3/4" applications, without any modification. Enter you vehicle information to confirm fit.
Crossover: Each crossover has screw terminal inputs and outputs that will accommodate bare wire or spade connectors up to 0.315" wide. (Speaker wire is not included with the system.) The output level of the tweeters is adjustable; choose 0 dB or -3 dB.
Crossover Dimensions:
- Length: 4.563" (plus wiring)
- Height: 1.327"
- Width: 2.6"
Tweeter Mounting Options: The tweeters can be flush mounted using the supplied hardware, or surface mounted using the included housings. Once mounted the tweeters have these dimensions:
Flush Mount | Angled Surface Mount | |
---|---|---|
Mounting Depth | 0.738" | 0.55" (screw depth) |
Mounting Height | 0.421" | 2.044" |

I just got this installed in my 2012 CRV. The sound is loud, crisp, and clear. I have them amped which is needed to get the best sound out of these. I couldn't be happier!
